| Abstract: | The grafting of 4-amino benzo-9-crown-3 ether to poly (styrene-alt-maleic anhydride) has been described. The covalent grafting of crown ether has led to a considerable increase in the solubility of polymer in organic solvents such as dimethyl sulphoxide, dimethylformamide and tetrahydrofuran. The highest solubility was attained in DMF and DMSO. The covalently bonded 4-benzo-9-crown-3 ether allowed the hosting of Li+. The covalently grafted crown ether to polymer was identified by infrared spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis methods. |
